About Two Door Cinema Club

The Two Door Cinema Club sounds more like a sketch comedy troupe than a Northern Irish rock band, but these guys aren't about to argue with what the marquee will draw.

No doubt, fans have come from far and wide to see the trio consisting of Alex Trimble (vocals, beats, rhythm guitar, synths), Sam Halliday (lead guitar, backing vocals), and Kevin Baird (bass, backing vocals). That's what happens when you form your own band at age 16, leaving plenty of time to hone your sound before the general public gets wind of up-and-coming talent. In this case, the three first performed under the name Life Without Rory, coming in dead last on BBC Northern Ireland television show highlighting new bands.

Luckily, the demise of one band didn't lead to a permanent hiatus from music. Two Door Cinema Club came together in 2007 and was named due to Halliday's mispronunciation of the name of the local cinema, the Tudor Cinema. They had an EP out by 2009, and their debut album, "Tourist History," was released in early 2010. It was followed by "Beacon" in August 2012, and by July 2013 the band had already begun work on their third studio album.

Heralded for its live shows, Two Door Cinema Club kicked off a full UK tour in 2013 that started in Belfast on January 18 and wrapped at London's Brixton Academy. The band was supported by Bastille and Swim Deep on that trek. It later commenced a three week European tour in Zurich, Switzerland, with support from Dog Is Dead and The 1975, followed by a huge London show at Alexandra Palace on April 27. They finally went on a run of summer festivals, including Scotland's T in the Park, England's Virgin Media V Festival, Portugal's Optimus Alive and their fourth appearance at Glastonbury.
